Dr Karin Love & Life

It struck him as he was working with his clients over the last several weeks. Americans are divided—much like couples in crisis are divided.  We’re dysregulated from the trauma of an incredibly contentious election and thus, we’re now prone to slip into what Elliott calls the “3 A’s of Intimacy Destruction.” We Assume, Accuse, and Attack—just like spouses in unhappy marriages.  We Assume the worst in the “other side.” We Accuse them of horrible intentions and actions. We Attack them for their character and values. We remain rigid in our conceptions of one another. We lose appreciation for the fullness of our friends and family. We see only one aspect of them—who they voted for.  And, if they voted for __________________, they’re now the enemy. Elliott has witnessed similar dynamics with couples in distress. He shares how techniques from marital therapy could help heal our divided nation. Sponsor: The Wellness Company Website: ⁠https://www.twc.health/lovelife⁠ Code: LOVELIFE for 15% off your order! Dr
